Two Regional Hospitals Receive COVID-19 Vaccines as Patient Numbers Increase

Two regional hospitals have received their first doses of the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine designed to immunize front line health care workers. Baptist Health in Madisonville received its first shipment of the vaccine on Tuesday, and Mercy Health-Lourdes Hospital in Paducah accepted its delivery Wednesday. They are two of 11 hospitals in the state that received the first shipments of the Pfizer vaccine. Governor Andy Beshear said he expects the Moderna vaccine to arrive in the next two weeks with those shipments designed for long term care facilities. On Wednesday, the state reported 2,898 new cases of the coronavirus which is the fewest for a Wednesday since November 18. The state’s positivity rate was 8.5-percent for a fourth straight day. Kentucky’s average of tests given per day is just over 24,000.
